UK washing machines have used Celsius for years. They are the same as those used throughout the EU. EU clothes and machines have care labels indicating temperature in Celsius. The following web site has the symbols (hold your mouse over the symbol to find out what it means). http://www.fairynonbio.co.uk/laundry/cl_allsymbols.shtml At least the site only gives washing machine capacity in kilograms only. http://www.fairynonbio.co.uk/qa/qa_lcwm.shtml#one Large Capacity Washing Machines (LCWM) 1. Is my washing machine large capacity? If you have purchased your washing machine in the past two years, there is a very good chance it may be a larger capacity. Please refer to the drum capacity stated in your instruction manual. If it's 5.5kg or more then it is large capacity. If you are unsure please check with the washing machine manufacturer. John
